environmental benefit from Japan-China cooperation is about 605 million USD/year
lower than that of Japan operating alone.
20.5.5 Profit Distribution Through Japan-China Cooperation
on the Indian Market
20.5.5.1 Cooperation Methods and Their Characteristics
Three cooperation cases are assumed in the analysis, as follows:
Cooperation method 1 (India alone) India uses the original 660 MW subcritical coalfired power generation unit, with a thermal efficiency of 32%.
Cooperation method 2 (Japan alone) Japan provides India with a 660 MW supercritical coal-fired power plant with a thermal efficiency of 38%. India switches to
this from subcritical pressure coal-fired power generation equipment with a
thermal efficiency of 32%. Economic profits accrue to Japanese companies that
provide supercritical coal-fired power generation facilities.
Cooperation method 3 (Japan-China cooperation in Indian market) Japan, China,
and India cooperate to build a 660 MW supercritical coal-fired power plant in
India. Japan cooperates with a Sino-Indian company to provide India with
supercritical pressure coal-fired power generation equipment with a thermal
efficiency of 38%, switching from subcritical pressure coal-fired power generation equipment with an original thermal efficiency of 32%. Chinese and Japanese
companies providing supercritical coal-fired power generation equipment generate economic profits. Also, when considering the CDM, environmental profits
accrue to Japanese and Chinese companies.
